British Airways EuroFlyer (BA EuroFlyer) is a British airline, and a wholly owned subsidiary of British Airways. It operates a network of short haul services from its base at Gatwick Airport near London, England. All services operate with BA's full colours, titles and flight numbers.
By early 2020, British Airways operated flights to over 50 destinations from its secondary hub at Gatwick Airport. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, British Airways suspended operations at Gatwick and consolidated all of its operations at Heathrow Airport.[2] In 2021, in an attempt to reduce operating costs to better compete with low-cost carriers such as easyJet,[3] British Airways announced its intention to establish a short-haul standalone business at Gatwick from 2022, similar to its BA CityFlyer operation from London City Airport, which operates under the British Airways name but exists as a separate entity.[citation needed]
BA EuroFlyer commenced operations in March 2022, with flights being operated by mainline BA until the airline received its Air Operators Certificate in December 2022.[4] BA EuroFlyer Limited holds a United Kingdom Civil Aviation Authority Type A Operating Licence, meaning that it is permitted to carry passengers, cargo and mail on aircraft with 20 or more seats.[citation needed] The airline then intended to operate a fleet of 19 Airbus A320 family aircraft to 40 destinations across Europe, North Africa and Western Asia from March 2023.[citation needed]
